correct! if ever faced with this situation, the hair should be split. We can accept that the action of the computer machinery is, without evidence to the contrary, assumed to be correct. It's not a "computer" error. BUT, the programming of said computer is certainly not infallible. In fact, without evidence to the contrary, I think there is ample precedent that a computer program is full of bugs and should be trusted not one bit. Where's the evidence that the program was tested? Designed to safety or reliability standards? Etc. If I was ever required to "prove" that a computer system (including programming) was faulty, Hoo-Boy! Give me access to the source code. It's a fair bet you could find one bug per every 100 lines of code without trying. The days of "nope - computer sez..." are over. Every judge, jury person has experienced these issues personally too. The position of infallible computer system will not stand long.
